FIRST, Please ...
 

With the 2009 regionals on the horizon, what would you like FIRST do at the regionals and Championships? I'll start things off with

FIRST, please don't make us beg for broken rocks/cells to be replaced.

FIRST, please, when scoring, clearly indicate when a supercell is in a trailer.

FIRST, please let teams know, well in advance, if the pits at a regional will be smaller than 10' x 10'.

I second the pit dimension, we would really like 10ftx10ft...

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

FIRST, please allow batteries with leads to not be counted in the Withholding Allowance.

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

please give NASA TV a good time schedule for the Championship event. ( I hate getting calls from my mother about how "they messed it up again")

FIRST, please provide yummy food for the volunteers.

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

Not that they've had a hard time of it in the past. (Show of hands, who's gone back--or at least wanted to go back--for another round of those brownies with the marshmallows on them that they serve at the Georgia Dome?)

FIRST, please keep the hard stuff hard and the easy stuff easy.

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

sorry for breaking the flow of this thread... :(

but what was the fiasco at SVR last year?

oh and FIRST, please make sure broken balls don't sway the score of a match one way or another

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

FIRST, please coordinate and execute a consistent competitive experience (inspection and gameplay) across all regionals and the Championship.

FIRST, please have enough control system technical support in place at all events such that veteran teams are not thrown to the wolves attempting to provide all tech support in its absence.

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

...have Dean, Woodie or Dave appear at every regional. The students treat them like rock stars. It is awesome to see.

Re: FIRST, Please ...
 

Please clearly identify the team# of each human player by location on the field.
